They wheek everytime I bring them their veggies in the morning!

Do you only feed veggies once a day? They really should have about a cup (per pig) of veggies twice per day. Print off a copy of the Diet/Nutrition Chart (at the top of the Diet/Nutrition forum) to use on a daily basis. I would be so lost without it!

Over a hundred dollars later, we found out they both have a URI and have to be on antibiotics for a few weeks.
|
Just curious but, why so long? Usually a course of antibiotic is about 10 days. I'm a far cry from being an expert, but 10 days has been our experience with ABs for a URI. I'm just wondering if our vet should be doing something different.

The other members of our family include a Beagle/mix named Jade, a Beagle named Raiden, and a Siamese cat named Mariah, all adoptees.

All of your "kids" are totally adorable! We also rescue/adopt unwanted "pet store toys". It's been heart-breaking, yet extremely rewarding. Mostly....REWARDING!
I'm looking forward to seeing more pigtures of your new masters! Enjoy the site...you will learn more than you could possibly ever imagine knowing about the proper care of cavies!
